Someone commented this whistle was not metal&hellip; is it metal or plastic coated with metal covering?

I seemed to be metal to me - felt solid. I got it for my mother who has since passed. My Dad was hard of hearing and she was falling now and again. They wanted to have something that he could hear in other rooms in their apartment. This whistle worked great! He could hear it even without his hearing aids.

It seems to be legitimate metal. But it is possible that it is only coated with metal. It looks great regardless.

It is plastic with a metallic coating. The coating on mine is wearing off. Here's a picture of mine: http://media501.dropshots.com/photos/987303/20140516/132826.jpg

As far as I can tell, it is metal. We have had no problems with it in the past year. The on/ off lever works like it was new and the stream/ spray switch on the head is still going strong.

Not metal. Wood with metal/aluminum outer layer. Looks like metal, but wood on inside. Still just as durable. you won't find a better mic for the money...

It's enamel coated metal...pretty thick & good quality. I have three different sizes and they're all tits.

It is plastic but looks like metal. Can't really tell it's plastic by looking at it.

This product is metal. if a reviewer received plastic then they got a wrong product.

It is not metal. I think it is a little stronger than plastic though. I love it and have had no issues with it!

I cannot tell from the text whether you are asking "which is it, metal or plastic?" or "which metal and/or plastic is it?" I cannot answer the second, so will do my best with the first. It appears to be non-conductive paint or plastic over a metal shell. I measure electrical continuity between the added weight screw thread (between the elongated cartridge mount holes) and the rear connector mounting. The metal is not iron; it does not attract a magnet. I hope this helps.

Plastic, but it's pretty good quality. I doubt you'll find any metal ones, otherwise it would be too heavy for the magnetic holder to hold the head to the neck.

It seems to be metal. I know the inside appears to be a nylon ball valve. I do know that after using this product for almost a year now it has worked flawlessly. I am actually going to purchase another for our second bathroom. It is a very we'll made product for the price

If you ordered is it metal or plastic? One person says metal the other plastic......

No plastic. Solid metal. Even the knob on top is stainless. I am very careful about plastic and this product has no plastic touching anything you will be consuming. I agree with Flamimgo; it is a great kettle.

It looks to be a high density plastic and probably hollow. Definitely not wood or metal. Holds up well.

From the outside, it definitely appears to be plastic, but is reinforced with a web beneath and might have metal (aluminum) inside it. I haven't used my instrument in rugged conditions and have been handling it with average care. There are no signs that that point might break or is deficient in design.

Metal, the cylinder is made of plastic. Appears to be fairly sound. We use this every weekend since the purchase.Absolutely love the set.
